We had a pretty good night here. I was awake many times (counting them has become depressing, because its so many I lose count) as T was coughing so much and it's more than a little worrying. However he settled himself back to sleep almost immediately every time. He also kept falling asleep after I had moved him to the other side of me to feed him more, but before I'd managed to get my boob out.
This morning hs been a bit of a horror though, crying to feed, crying when feeding, crying to come off, etc etc. though all with his weird silent cry because he still has no voice. I've gotten quite angry with him, then massive guilt, then tears for DH. :(
It seems like T just doesn't want me to do anything I want to do. He'll watch the adverts on tv, but not the program I want to watch; he's happy when I'm standing, but not sitting; happy when he's facing out from me (and bloody heavy and awkward) but not held against me. I can't even shower, pee, eat or drink when I want (or now what I want, going dairy free). DH gets to do everything he wants unless I tell him no. Which makes me the bad guy, not T.
DHs solution is to get T sleeping in his cot in his own room for day and night (once he's better). Sounds great in theory, except the hard work will all be mine getting him to sleep there. Still, going to spend the weekend getting the nursery ready with blackout curtains etc.
I think we'll do BLW, though we may end up with some purée - just see how it goes really. I like the idea of just giving him bits of our food without faff, but also there's the traditional image of feeding baby purée with a spoon that I kind of feel is "right" (a bit like those family Christmas' in magazines that you always feel you should have, but don't).
Ski I hope you get some good advice on your thread, and good news about stopping the ABs sooner.
Spotty it will get better it bloody well has to.
Honey poor D and poor you, hope he's feeling better now?
